 * Hi,
 * I have 2 main issues which i need a bit of help with
 * 1-
    The meta description applied on pages are not applied on the SERP. Some of
   the meta descriptions are correct while some other desc: are from the page content.
   I tried from the google webmaster tool and the description there is same as that
   of what I gave in the website, but what being displayed in Search Result is wrong.
 * See images attached:

 * Hello!
 * 1. If you just started using TSF, please give search engines more time to reprocess
   your pages. This can take months if your site is large, or just a few weeks if
   your site is small. You can speed up this process by [requesting a recrawl](https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/6065812?hl=en).
 * Please note that Google doesn’t always use the description provided by you. To
   learn more, please refer to their official documentation on this matter: [https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/35624?hl=en#meta-descriptions](https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/35624?hl=en#meta-descriptions).
 * When you adhere to their guidelines, have a green pixel counter bar, and follow
   our (optional) [Focus assessment guidelines for descriptions](https://theseoframework.com/extensions/focus/#usage/meta-description),
   Google will become more likely to use your provided description.
 * 2. Please see [Bing’s documentation](https://www.bing.com/webmaster/help/how-to-verify-ownership-of-your-site-afcfefc6).
   You should copy the `<meta name="msvalidate.01" content="yourcode" />` line, 
   and paste it in TSF’s settings. TSF will take the `content` attribute for you
   if you paste in the full meta tag.
